DESIRES

After Fiona had left, Xaden lay down in his couch thinking into space of what she had said.

Jasmine truly would not mind him staying with her?

He felt like a teenage boy with butterflies, unsure of the right moves to make towards her.

To his horror there were in fact mosquitoes in the room.

It baffled him as he kept smacking them over and over trying to chase them away.

At one point he turned to his wolf and snapped at them.

He then reverted back to his human form and after lying back down with the blanket by his neck, he started to hear the singing of the little insects.

A few minutes later, after so much thought along with him tossing and banging his head into the headboard of the couch along with the frequent mosquitoes disturbance , he summoned confidence and went out of the study.

It was perhaps around two in the early hours of the morning as he went back to his bedroom.
